My late wife had a favorite saying ..."life isn't fair and then you die". This sounds rather morose but to her it wasn't.  By accepting the life contract, one can be free to live life as you correctly espouse, by enjoying the good times and laughing at the bad.  Only the wisdom of the years and difficult circumstances can give us that kind of life perspective.  Karen, somehow, found her place and this gift of wisdom much sooner than this dunce.  The only reality more difficult than the life contract would be to have passed and no longer have the opportunity to struggle against the inevitable.  Thankfully,we struggle on, you and I, for we are not there yet, knock on wood! 

It is great hearing from you again, hang in there Red, I wish you and yours the best!  Say hello to the guys. gg.
